The Hungarian young ladies (from Bács-Kiskun area) honored a specific design around 1910-20. When of the assortment the 60-70-year-elderly people ladies had shown their tattoos eagerly on their inward lower arms. The figures portrayed brilliant or handle finished Greek crosses (alleged dominum-cross) with speck adornment between the arms. Additionally, the monogram of the wearer's birth name and the consummation date regularly happened. This sort of tattoo existed in heterogeneous towns in the circle of Hungarians and Southern Slavs (Sokac or Bunjevac), notwithstanding, it appears to be that the generally Hungarians wore tattoos and they inked the Southern Slavs too. 

The situation was practically something very similar for each situation. The youthful 13-18 year-old young ladies had their figure finished with their dear companions. With an ink-pencil they scribed it then they bound 2-3-sewing-needles and got ash from the stack or paraffin light and mixed that with some liquor. With needles dunked in the ash they jabbed the scribed figure until it drained. They here and there just extended the skin from under however more frequently they tied it off beneath or over the space or the hand over the wrist so the blood went to the lower arm and the skin solidified. This mode created a major torment and extra irritations. Örzse Kunyik (Mrs István Gyenis) could account herself truly unfortunate who had made a tattoo subtly for herself. Her senior cousin wore a comparable figure and she had a longing for it since she was a young lady. She was woken up crying by the aggravation since her injury had reached a critical stage and they needed to call the specialist. On top of this, she was destroyed. 

From one viewpoint, due to the guardians' preclusion, then again on account of the silly confidential, the two companions for the most part without the grown-ups' information did the technique in a secret spot and they frequently inked one another. The field was appropriate for this where the vast majority watched the creatures at any rate or the turning house, the focal point of shared life. 

It was ordinary to take extravagant to inking when they ventured out from home, went to serve to an alternate town or turned into a day-worker. Here they could meet other youngsters from various towns. For instance, Verona Gyenis (Mrs Péter Gyurica) saw a tattoo at reap and afterward she favored it. Additionally, Örzse Német (Widow Mrs Antal Nagy) got motivation at corn collect in fall where she saw face tattoos on different young ladies. Together the companions needed one as well and on the grounds that there were additional arrangement guardians then, at that point also, she mentioned to her dad what she needed. The dad didn't allow the face tattoo, since he thought those were worn by awful individuals, notwithstanding "on the off chance that they can bear it", he said "they can do it on the hand". The dad scribed the figure for his girl and her better half. A long time later, when she was a lady of the hour, when Mrs Antal Nagy got hitched in Nagybaracska, she made a tattoo for a nearby young lady.
